PRICE ffly NOT GET SEAT SOON, I. Opinion Is He Can Not Take Soil Commissioner's Office t Before Next June. ■ j 1 I < The c’ection of James I). Price to he I ■ commissioner of agriculture gave rise today to a heated discussion in the I state caplto! as to when he would begin i hie term. The general opinion is that ‘ he can not take office until after the ; canvasses the returns, which will be at the opening of the session next .June, giving him office about July 1. .' The question is rather a tangled one. and the attorney general may be called | upon for a special decision in the mat- i ter.' If a contest is made. Governor I Brawn may find himself in an embar- i rassing position, as .1. J. Connor, the tn. cumbent, is a Brown appointee, and Mr. Price, commissioner-elect, is also a close friend and supporter of the gov ernor When Mr. Connor was appointed to fill tile unexpired term of Torn Hudson, his commission was written to read "to serve until the expiration of the term or until his successor is elected and qualified." The question hinges on the word “qualified." Mr. Price will be elected formally a' I the October regular election. He might [ then qualify, his friends hold, by pre senting himself to the governor to be sworn in. Bid Mr. Connor’s friends I quote the Georgia code and a ruling of], the attorney general to show that he can not qualify until next June. The act creating the commissioner of , agriculture specified thiv he should be ( elected the stint? as the governor and , other constitutional officers. I nder ( this ruling, the returns electing Mr. Price can oniv be canvassed by the leg- : . islature. The legislature will not meet ; , until next June. If this is accepted as; the correct view. Mr. Price can not take i his seat before about July 1. 1913. : f F, B. KELLOGG BUSTER ;! OF TRUSTS, ELECTED p AMERICAN BAR HEAD .- ' 1 MILAV A I'KF.F. WIS . vug. 29.

INSANE WOMAN MENACES TUR Arrested Trying to Give Presi dent ’“Sacred Knife” at Co lumbus Centenary. t’OH'MBI'S. OHIO. Aug 2^.—A woman about 45 years old and believed to be insane, was arrested this morning at the Southern hotel as she tried to entc an elevator in which President Taft was ascending to go to breakfast. She gave the name of Carolyn Beers, of Greenville, Ohio, and told the police she wanted to give the president a "sa cred knife." The woman had been seen about the Southern hotel Wednesday and when she attempted to enter the “levator was -eized by detectives. "I am the president's wife," she told the detectives, "and I am following him to see that he is true to me. I have a sacred knife which I am going to give him." The woman was rushed to the city prison by the detectives in an automo bile and when searched by the matron two ordinary pocket knives were found in the bosom of her dress. She contin ued to ramb'e and said that she had seen Taft at the Gibson house in Cin cinnati last fall and that he had then told her to go home and stay with her daughter. She persisted In her declar ation that she was the president's wife ■and to quiet her the chief told he he would have the president visit her at the prison. Thousands Greet President. 1 aft arrived here on the Pennsyl vania railroad at 8 o'clock this morn ing and was given a military escort through High street to rhe Southern • hotel, where he was received by Mayor George A Karb. members of the Ohio Columbus Centennial commission and distinguished guests. After informal Sterlings had been extended the presi dent ami his party had breakfast at the hotel. Thousands of Centennial visitors lined the streets and cheered the presi dent as his automobile whirred by. Today was Federal day of the Cen tennial. with President Taft the gues. of honor. In his address at the fair grounds President Taft defended his use of the veto and attacked most of the so-called progressive measures as "nostrums.' He did not mention the measures specifically, although he declared that the trouble with the men who advo cated them was that "they wanted to Piace reforms into effect by tomorrow' morning's breakfast." ' I hat is not the way nations grow. " dec la ed the president. "They grow by years and decades and mere change is not necessarily progress. If we de sire to make certain progress we must move Step by step and will) the utmost care." Defends His Vetoes. Referring to bis recent vetoes he said he only did what his conscience forced him to do. "When you take a Democratic house, a senate that isn't anything and a Re publican (resident." said Taft, “the veto is likely to be used. "I used it only moderately, if you will i eview the history of vetoes in this countiy you will find out that most of them have been for the good." The president then recalled the in stance of President Grant vetoing the bill providing for the Issuance of green backs and said that "our sound finances today were traced directly from that veto." Most of the president's speech was devoted to a historical review of the growth of Columbus and Ohio. He re ferred to the government s activity in advancing scientific agriculture. He was introduced by Dr. Thompson, president of the state fai: association The audience of 10,000 people received the address cordially, but no enthusi asm was manifested. BIG STABLES BURN.

Cordill. in his ieport, gives a very good account of ihe Atlantic states His re port follows: “Atlantic's as a whole show steady and uninterrupted improvement for the month of August.” Spot interests have been noticeable sell ers throughout the day, while the ring speculators and commission houses have been free buyers. Some Wall street houses were at times buyers also. This coterie of speculators boosting the staple through their aggressiveness prices were firmly maintained around the early range throughout the late forenoon trading and afternoon session. This bulk of trading is believed to be evening up the market for ithe holidays Late during the afternoon trading October was steady and un changed from the first figures, also De cember. Crop reports continue favorable and sentiments generally are very bear ish Heavy liquidation prevailed during the las' half hour of trading by local profes sionals. causing a backward movement in prices, and at the close the market was easy, with prices a net decline of 8 to 12 points from the final quotations of Wed nesday.

HAYWARD &. CLARK'S DAILY COTTON LETTER NEW ORLEANS. Aug 29.- Support In New York in tlie last hours yesterday was stimulated, it appears, by unfounded rumors of storm. Though absolutely no indications of any disturbance. On the contrary, a strong cool wave is coming on the belt in the next few days and will cause general rains and cooler weather in tlie western and north central belt. The map shows very favorable conditions, warm weather, fair in middle belt, cloudy in northern belt and gulf districts. No rain, except some in southeast Texas and middle gulf coast. Liverpool was steadier today with futures and spots 4 points up; sales 6.000 bales. New York reports say that leading spot interests are the principal sellers, while the buying is to cove- shorts before the holidays and speculative on the pari of a few strong operators. Our market opened about 8 points up to meet the advance In other markets. Soiling is restricted to the holidays and a disposition to cover before bureau publi cation. The market is consequently easier to sustain. Spots here are still remarkably quiet, particularly if compared with the active inquiry this time last .year.
